The I-Locate Project, “Indoor/outdoor location and asset management through open geodata” http://www.i-locate.eu/, is now passing through the second year of activity. URBASOFIA as full partner is following each steps for the final and successful conclusion of all the tasks and work we are involved.
Since September 2015 Urbasofia is pursuing its main task in the “Pilot Phase” of this project, which will identify the economic and technical impacts of the pilots during the operational phase, for this purpose the Urbasofia team has carried out the necessary tools in order to extract the first survey for the so-called ”Mid-term pilots evaluation, assessment an recommendation for improvements” which will describe the project evaluation during the first 6 months of operations.
Currently, the project is performing with good results in almost every 14 pilot sites, placed in 8 countries along EU.
